Geothermal Co-Production Webinar - First steps towards a sustainable future.

Tune in online August 19th for CanGEA's Co-Production webinar where we will discuss viable options of Geothermal/Petroleum energy co-generation, right at the wellhead. Co-production offers a sustainable "turn key" conversion of existing Oil and Gas drilling infrastructure by utilizing the hot production water resources already at surface as part of hydrocarbon extraction. It offers well owners and operators a holistic approach for harnessing and selling various forms of energy while diversifying their revenue streams and creating new jobs. Geothermal co-production can be the profitable and sustainable evolution of the Canadian oil and gas industry. 

When? August 19th 10:30 - 12:45 MDT
​Where? Webinar - Tune in from anywhere with internet connection.
​
Agenda:

• Member Project Updates and Investor Financing Opportunities - Alison Thompson (CanGEA)
  • Myriad of Profitable Uses for Geothermal Heat
• Pioneering the Co-Production Future - Will Gosnold (University of North Dakota, Principal researcher for the recent USDOE/industry co-produced fluids project)
• Discussion of Co-Production Development and Nuances - Maria Richards (President Elect – Geothermal Resources Council) 
• Leduc #1 Living Energy Project - The Canadian Co-Production frontier - Mitch Pomphrey (Leduc No.1 Discovery Centre)
• Policy Making Power Profitable - Alex Kent (CanGEA)

Dr. William D. Gosnold, the head researcher on the North Dakota Geothermal Power Demonstration Project, is Professor of Geophysics in the Department of Geology and Geological Engineering at University of North Dakota. In 2006 he was awarded the title Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor, the highest award of the University of North Dakota. Dr. Gosnold's research interests include continental heat flow, borehole paleoclimatology, global change, flood frequency analysis, crust and mantle rheology, gravity signatures of geological structures, geothermal energy, and tectonics. 

Maria Richards is an authority on geothermal energy -- the use of the earth's natural heat to generate electrical power. SMU’s Geothermal Laboratory is a renowned national resource for the development of clean, green energy. She co-directed sophisticated mapping of North American geothermal resources that make it clear that vast geothermal resources reachable through current technology could replace and multiply the levels of energy currently produced in the United States - mostly by coal-fired power plants.

Leduc #1 Living Energy Project - Leduc #1 Energy Discovery Centre launched Canada’s first oil well-to-geothermal conversion with a plan to become the world’s first carbon neutral oil museum. The Leduc #1 Energy Discovery Centre is located in Devon AB, at the heritage site of the Leduc #1 Discovery well that catalyzed Alberta's petroleum industry. The Living Energy Project builds on this proud legacy, carrying Leduc #1’s energy innovation into the 21st Century. The project showcases Alberta’s innovation, green technologies and their deployment by oil firms, while creating a partnership opportunity between oil firms, renewable energy firms, and government.

Benefits of Co-Production:

• Offset expensive and wasteful water disposal costs
• CO2 credits
• Opportunity to increase well and land value with added profits
• Reduce Taxpayer Orphan Well liability if used in production
• Continue Oil & Gas royalties from wells that continue to produce
• Create jobs and retain employees
• Clean usable power and heat to remote locations with transmission costs for off grid diesel.
